A developer who doesn&rsquo;t know Rust used the official 22,000-file PHP test suite as an incorruptible oracle to grade the AI&rsquo;s code generation, preventing the model from hallucinating success or &ldquo;grading its own homework&rdquo;. It now successfully renders a WordPress front page from a SQLite database, proving that leveraging hostile test suites as a build system actually scales to real-world codebases, even if the resulting engine is 55x slower than native PHP.</p>
